The Daimler had been on its way to pick up a bride to take her to her wedding.

The car, which had its roof ripped off by the impact, belonged to Chariot Chauffeurs, with the company’s Jay Sherwin telling the Sun on Sunday newspaper: “I can confirm that it is one of our cars but at this stage I do not know what happened to the driver.”
